surely.

myself am using 6 killers, 4 are of the same ply and the other two are from the
deeper subsequent ply (ply+2 i suposse) I don't give details as my particular
details surely aren't particularly good for anyone.

Am not using history heuristic. Good luck with that.

do I have a stonger amateur engine? :) I don't know how is yours.

good wishes.

aaaah, I use a web service to obtain a synchronyzed priority list and stuff.
Last time amyan played with kasparov it did fine.
